Healthy eating is easier than ever. That’s because we know so much more about what a healthy diet looks like than we did even five years ago. Choosing healthy foods based on good science remains the best known way to reduce your chances of developing heart disease and diabetes and to help ward off hypertension, osteoporosis, and some forms of cancer.

We’ve known for many years that certain foods promote good health — especially fruits, vegetables, fiber, plant oils, and whole grains. But the latest nutritional science shows that there is not a single “healthy diet.” Instead, there are many patterns of eating around the world that sustain good health. A healthy eating pattern also includes enough energy (calories) to fuel the body, but not so much as to cause weight gain.

Eating more whole foods — unprocessed foods with few ingredients listed on the label, if the product has a label at all — isn’t all that difficult. It takes a little organizing to have the ingredients on hand and the right equipment, but actually putting it all together takes just minutes. That’s what this report will help you discover — that healthy eating is easier than you think. There are many ways to get away from factory-processed foods laden with fat, sugar, and salt.

In addition, the U.S. government has revamped its Dietary Guidelines for Americans and they are described in this report.
